The QIAOSHI’s Military Barriers or Hesco Bastions is a modern gabion used for flood control and military fortification. It is made of a collapsible wire mesh container and heavy duty fabric liner, and used as a temporary to semi-permanent dike or barrier against blast or small-arms. One of the less heralded life- and labor-saving devices of war, it is used on nearly every United States Military base in Iraq as well as on NATO bases in Afghanistan.

Assembly
Assembling the Hesco Bastion entails unfolding it and (if available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand, dirt or gravel. The placement of the barrier is generally very similar to the placement of a sandbag barrier or earth berm except that room must generally be allowed for the equipment used to fill the barrier. The main advantage of Military Barrier, strongly contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters, is the quick and easy setup. Previously, people had to fill sandbags, a slow undertaking, with one worker filling about 20 sandbags per hour. Workers using Military Barrier and a front end loader can do ten times the work of those using sandbags.
The Hesco Barrier come in a variety of sizes. Most of the barriers can also be stacked, and they are shipped collapsed in compact sets. Example dimensions of typical configurations are 46″ x 36″ x 32 (1.4m x 1.1m x 9.8m) to 7 x 5 x 100 (2.1m x 1.5m x 30m).
A new system of Hesco Bastion developed specially for military use is deployed from a container,gabion sacks, which is dragged along the line of ground where the barrier is to be formed, unfolding up to several hundred meters of barrier in minutes, ready for filling with soil by a backhoe.
Protection
Filled with sand, 60 centimetres (24 inches) of barrier thickness will stop rifle bullets and shell fragments. It takes 1.5 metres (five feet) of thickness to prevent penetration by a rocket propelled grenade round. Approximately 1.2 metres (four feet) of thickness provides protection against most car bombs.

The company detected something unusual shortly after it started raising funds for the flood victims on Oct 24 through its television programme Ratcharot Ma Koey.

However, Pol Maj Gen Supisarn said police would have to check with banks to find out how much the suspects had stolen.

A Workpoint Entertainment staff member made a call to the number displayed on the programme and found it had been redirected to an unidentified person who posed as a company representative.

Rungroj Maddeen, 31,Rate cut fails to impress-hesco bastion,钢格栅安装夹, and his half-sister Marisa Ranjuanjit, 25, were nabbed after Workpoint Entertainment, a media company, asked the Crime Suppression Division to track down a gang which had tampered with its telephone system to steal the donated money.

The audience was encouraged to call the contact centre to donate. But after a week no calls had been made.

As well as Ratcharot Ma Koey, news talk programme Khao Khon Kon Khao, was also targetted. Both programmes are aired on Monday to Friday on Mcot Plc’s Channel 9.
